About this deal

People all over the world love the F-91W because it just works. The only complaint anyone ever has about the F-91W is that the nightlight is terrible. Solution? Buy an F105W. Problem solved. W800H: Nothing wrong with this watch at all. It's the strap. Too long. For larger-wristed folk, this is the ideal good cheap Casio digital because it has everything you'd want from an F-91W with a larger case, and in addition shows the full date with year on the main display. I would own one of these myself were it not for that long strap. Ages ago, I went for a dive using my a Timex Ironman digital watch, I can’t remember what exactly it was rated for, but I think it was 100m / 300 ft. IIRC after about 30 feet, the pressure is sufficient that the buttons do not work any more- they all get pushed in at the same time because the pressure outside easily overcomes the small amount of atmospheric pressure inside the watch. So I guess it is technically correct that depth and submersion didn’t damage the watch, but it was functionally useless. I suspect that would be the case for this Casio in the article.

However, as good as the F-91W is for a simple and good wristwatch, what works against it are its buttons. They work, but can be annoying to press as they are just a smidgen too small. The resin housing is the ideal everyday companion. It is durable, lightweight and relatively insensitive to cold, heat or other external influences. One model that Walmart carries that does have it is the A168. If you like a small digital with a steel bracelet, that's your watch. But if it's not, the resin version is the F105W...

Where legibility is concerned, W59 is really good. Because it has the older style night light, the LCD color is a lighter shade of gray that makes for great contrast. Very easy to read the time, just like the F-91W. That watch has 4 buttons. If you watch any episode of ELR you will see one button on the right side of the watch during closeups. I think it was mainly the F91, but he did wear the F105 in at least one season. Jednoduché hodinky menšieho kalibru. Vhodné pre chlapca, prípadne pre niekoho nenáročného. Majú iluminátor, stopky, budík, pípnutie každú hodinu a vydržia aj sprchovanie. Za tú cenu super. Možno by to chcelo odolnejší display, prípadne nejakú externú ochranu v podobe zahĺbeného sklíčka, ale to už majú Casiovky vo vyšších cenových kategóriách. I don't know exactly when this watch was introduced to market, but it definitely came shortly after Timex released watches with the the Indiglo nightlight technology in 1992. My guess is that at earliest, the F105W is probably a design from the mid-1990s. Is the F105W exactly the same as the F-91W? It's funny, with all the talk about the F91 these days, I still think that the most commonly worn of the classic Casio digitals is the F105. Either that or the...can't think of the model right now, but it's 50M and features a countdown timer. It seems that any department store that sells basic Casios will sell these 2 models before any other.

Because of this, it isn’t uncommon to see individual watches exceed their rated pressures, and also to fail well below their rated pressures, even in the same make and model for cheaper watches..Dont know about the f91 but this may give you an idea and it is very nicely written. Its about a Casio A158. Practically the same watch only with Steel bracelet and chromed case. The big M doesn’t mean meters. It’s just tested up to a static pressure of 3 Bars or 30 m of hydrostatic pressure. While I described the W93H as a bit of a dud for me in my last article, the F105W is a total winner in my book.
